Abstract
LONDON. Chemical Society, June 15.—Dr. Armstrong, President, in the chair.—The following papers were read:—Contributions to our knowledge of the aconite alkaloids. Part vi. Conversion of aconitine into isaconitine, by W. R. Dunstan and F.H. Carr. On heating the hydrobromide of the highly poisonous aconitine it is converted into the corresponding salt of its non-poisonous isomeride, isaconitine.—Part vii. Some modifications of aconitine aurichloride, by W. R. Dunstan and H. A. D. Jowett. Aconitine aurichloride may be obtained in three different physically isomeric modifications, melting at 135.5°, 152°, and 176° respectively.—Note on the stereoisomerism of nitrogen compounds, by S. U. Pickering.—A study of the properties of some strong solutions, by S. U. Pickering.
